01x02 - The Fight For A Cause/Aika

[bunniefuu]

'They should have hung her.'

'Bloody witch!'

I'm Batool. You needed a maid?

Munna! Explain this to me.

You wh*re!

You've shown your true colours!

'Who knew that the murderous witch

would become my guardian angel.'

From Larkana to LA

75 women got dirty

messages from him.

There should be some

kind of payback.

First of all, any man who's cheating

will never admit to it.

If you suspect that your husband

is cheating on you

and you want proof, you call us.

- Spying?

Count me in, ma'am.

Listen to me, babe.

- No, no

You listen, babe.

The empty commercial building,

that is in your name

you'll hand that to me.

From that building,

I'll start my business

that you'll also fund for me.

Because Miss Innocent

will turn naughty

by opening a 'niqaab' shop.

"I am a witch."

"My eyes cast black magic."

"I wander in the darkness of night."

"My aura will instil fear in you."

"Witch.

- It's my reincarnation."

"Witch.

- It's the end of your story."

2. AIKA

There was no shortage in this city,

of women who'd been betrayed.

So you decided to turn this mound

of betrayals into business?

And got an army ready

for your adventures.

'There were many'

'who were anxious for

a new beginning.'

'Ladies who were eager

for the spotlight.'

"Invectives of a black tongue;

Black evenings of dark nights!"

"My lover is a cheat!"

'Ladies who had been screwed

by the system.'

"My unfaithful lover"

'Smart ladies.'

"He has a black heart"

'Pretty ladies.'

"My lover is a cheat!"

'Badass ladies.'

"Who are they?

Too many here.

We need to bring them down.

Biceps

background checks done?

Yes, boss. But

Jail. Jail.

- Batool's g*ng.

I'm sure of these two.

Heroin addict,

coke addict, mentally unstable.

Ooh, coke!

- No, thank you.

"My lover is a cheat!"

"My lover is a cheat!"

"My lover is a cheat!"

"My lover is a cheat!"

I can't untie this.

Wear these and walk

in a straight line.

Open the lock.

"Sing in tune"

Unlock the password.

"A black crow,

the wind is dark"

"The soil is black"

Why do you want to work with us?

This is all I'm good at!

To get a big mansion!

- Money.

Monies.

- Cash.

Money.

So what?

Money is a great motivator,

that's why I'm here.

Yes, but - Why else would they

do it, if not for money?

They are all passionate.

We'll make them loyal too.

Okay.

Let's do this.

- Yes!

Let's do it.

'The Chosen Seven.'

What we are doing here

isn't ill*gal.

It's not a crime.

- What do you mean?

Are we off to sell oil?

That's no fun!

We have only one agenda.

For women to know the truth

and get justice.

And for men to realise

their mistakes.

But Zubaida was saying we'll

be online all the time.

We'll take selfies, and

Lure sexy boys!

I had to rope them in somehow!

Basically,

we will earn a lot of money.

That's it!

This one is on the right track!

Hello, boss!

- And in order to earn money

we may have to be crooked sometimes.

Now we're talking!

- Sweetie, please.

Crooked only if

the situation calls for it.

- Oh gosh!

Are these fur jackets for us?

'They were all hard nuts to crack.'

'But in time,

they came into their own.'

'The honey traps.'

'The catfish.'

'The hackers.'

'The carjacker.'

'And the jack of all tricks.'

'Next phase was to find

prospective clients.'

'And the best place for that'

'Weddings.'

'Nothing like a brand new bride'

'to make a woman recall the horrors

of her own marriage.'

You know about it too?

Even I heard something, but

everything is so hush hush.

Yes, yes, they are very exclusive.

And the first few months,

they're fully booked.

I spoke with a trial client

and the information that

this agency gave her

Oh my!

She'll take every last penny

from her husband.

Anyway, who cares!

Yes, who cares.

- 'One, two, three'

'and' - Where can I get

their details from?

'Be it a wedding,

or a baby shower'

'Or someone's funeral'

'Jugnu's whispers spread through

every closed door.'

"HALAL DESIGNS MODESTY IS

A WOMAN'S CROWN JEWEL."

"MEN WILL SUFFER."

'And the colourful ladies

of Halal Designs'

'took over the streets

of this city.'

"Don't look back."

"Dark faces of the night"

"The fear stings"

"Our goal mocks us!"

"Beware of the slightest sound!"

"The heart is full of fear."

"Walk gently"

"Dark faces of the night"

"The fear stings"

"MEN WILL SUFFER"

"Our goal mocks us!"

"The fear stings"

"Our goal mocks us!"

"Don't ask about this,

but you may ask how I am?"

"I speak to the wind,

look I am flying"

"Look, there is a storm

in my heart"

"Things have lit up;

My heart is relieved!"

You should go here.

I think I'll have to.

"The fear stings"

"Our goal mocks us!"

"The fear stings"

"Our goal mocks us!"

"MEN WILL SUFFER"

Are we ready, to be the best

versions of ourselves?

What did she say?

Louder b*tches!

- Are we ready?

Yes!

What will you teach the kids?

We'll distribute more

flyers tomorrow.

I'll boost social media too.

It's okay. It's fine.

We tried our best.

And that's all that matters.

The process is

I might head home.

Bake something for the kids.

No b*tch is baking under my watch.

Hello, Naila. Jugnu here.

I need extras.

About 50 to 100.

Yes, it's for a friend's sh**t.

I'll pay cash.

Don't send your usual crap, please.

Does everyone know what to do?

Okay.

- Boss, this is a toy?

I bought it from a toy shop,

you'll handle this right? - Yes.

Okay, start.

Action!

Let's go, let's go!

- Turn by turn!

What are you doing?

What I do best

Other than this! Creating an event.

Wait and watch now.

Oh!

Turn by turn!

Come on. Let's go.

- Where are you going?

You've to go turn by turn.

- Let us go!

Hold on.

It's a 'fundo' shop,

look what they've named it!

But look at the queue,

they must have nice prints.

Tell your friends!

Even if the clothes sell,

that's not what we set out to do.

Relax, Phoolan.

First the clothes will sell,

then the truth.

Either way, your pockets

will be filled.

Hello, Halal Designs.

Yes, we are on that street.

There is a long queue outside but

I'll give you a special entry!

The women from our online group

are scared to come over here.

See! And they'll look at this and

Showtime, m*therf*ckers.

Shotgun.

Baby Doll.

Go get her.

I don't understand why you've

brought me here.

I told you I don't want

to see anything.

Look at this. This is pretty.

If you wear this,

you'll look as hot as me.

I am here for something else.

Something else?

Look at this pink one.

This will also look hot on you.

The colour is really pretty.

For me,

pull something out from behind.

Excuse me? From behind?

What the speciality is here.

Everything is special here, ma'am.

What are you after?

Men will suffer.

Men will definitely suffer.

Come with me.

Is this mineral water?

Hello.

Hi.

Please relax.

What can we do for you?

Actually

My husband

Won't you show yourself?

It's our policy

for privacy and safety.

Oh.

Oh.

Your husband?

My husband is a nice person.

He's very sweet.

And very committed.

He can't possibly

His secretary has done some

sort of magic on him.

You are well aware

That

If given the slightest chance

men can easily slip.

So, you want information on his

affair with the secretary? - No.

Not an affair.

Don't call it an affair.

He's not having an affair.

You just said that he has slipped?

He's about to slip.

That's why I'm here.

To find out how she will

Make him slip?

Yes.

That is what I am here to find out.

'Husband-is-God complex.'

'Either they pretended they

were "asking for a friend"

'or were convinced that

some seductress'

'Was setting a trap for

the innocent husband.'

Abdul Majeed.

He is not the cheating type.

You understand, right?

He is so committed.

Are we taking this case?

I came here from Hyderabad with

just one dream. Red carpet!

Me on that carpet,

and camera flashes everywhere!

A mic here, a mic there.

Sheila! Sheila!

I came here to be a superstar.

Guess being a spy will have to do.

- Shh!

What?

- She is here.

Camera, camera, camera!

What now?

Now, we follow them.

Leave! Out!

Come on, come on!

I didn't see anyone.

What? I tried!

Hurry, hurry! He's coming.

- Hot fudge!

You had to pretend to be blind?

Yeah so

Oh!

Sorry, I got scared.

Were the tables upfront vacant?

I guess so.

That's not an answer. Yes or no?

- Yes.

Yes? Okay.

That means, they're sitting

in the booths at the back.

There will be less noise there too.

Okay. Good.

Do not repeat this stupidity again.

Always the same restaurant.

The Eatery.

Once or twice in a week.

But after eating they don't go

to a hotel or an apartment.

Meaning, it is early days for them.

This is the only lead.

I know who runs The Eatery.

I know that you know.

No, no, no.

Sara, I hate her.

Queen of the jungle, baby.

I'm sorry, Jugnu.

I can't be seen with you.

Who is seeing us? The chef?

That stupid chandelier fell.

I didn't drop it on purpose.

If you could give me a second.

- Look, I'm really busy right now.

I know, I can see that but

- This restaurant runs on contacts.

If anyone sees you here

I'll be screwed.

The Kazmis are sitting outside.

No one will see me,

I'll exit from the backdoor.

Alright?

- You just hire her. Look at her.

She's cute.

- How can I just hire her?

I don't need a waitress.

- Just a week. Fire her. Trial!

What if I refuse?

Take this.

I didn't think it's going

to come down to this

since we've so much history,

and you know

so many sleepovers, school crushes.

Well,

if this is how you feel, then

How do you have this?

Because I am me.

And me wounding five people

is nothing compared to your little

detour to lesbianville.

So, what do you say?

One week trial?

- Sure.

Anything for you.

Oh, you are such a doll.

Me? No,

no, no, I won't be able to do this.

It's too soon for her, I'll do it.

- What prost*tute is so shy?

These shy ones are in

high demand too.

Munni

You'll have to get started someday.

- Yes.

You can do it, Munni.

You're amazing.

You can do this.

Thank you.

- And this is for you.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

- It's okay.

Excuse me. Kindly close the door.

- Yes, sir.

Thank you.

Trust me

I will leave her for you.

I promise.

You're the only one for me.

Just you.

Sir, I have told you many times

that I don't want to

hurt your family.

I cannot do this.

From next week

appraisals are starting.

I was planning to promote you.

Sorry, sir. I cannot do this.

Since they were in a public place,

we thought

we should also take a video

from under the table.

You will burn in hell.

I beg your pardon?

You lot are ruining families.

Here is the rest of the amount.

Actually, it isn't that.

We're just

So

How did she take it?

As per Bilquees,

we are all burning in hell.

Not unexpected.

- I know.

But there was more pain here,

than truth.

And Jugnu

We have planned all this. And

I know this was my idea. But

Maybe

Maybe women like being in the dark.

Did you like being in the dark?

Okay, I'm sorry. But

I mean,

look at this cash in my hand.

And you're getting everything

that you wanted.

Justice, truth.

All those cute little things.

Bilquees will kick her scumbag

husband and have a party!

Or she'll think that a

characterless woman

Lured her husband!

I know. But either way

we aren't here to lecture them,

or teach them morals.

They pay us,

and we do what we are asked to do.

Let's just keep it simple.

How did I do?

Amazing! I am so proud of you.

Bonus.

Thank you.

You're right.

I'm always right.

'In just a week,

our clothing store had become'

'the most famous shop in the city.'

Let us go.

We've been waiting for three hours!

'And in a few months,

we'd become an institution'

'that was both revered'

'And feared.'

'Our USP'

'keeping all information

confidential.'

With our maid

Something is going on.

Chased after my friend.

He doesn't even touch me.

Social media username?

Always a work trip excuse.

Bank statements?

Car number plate?

"I see on the other side."

"You seem to feel it."

'Our strength'

'Our discretion.'

"I can see your face."

'We were discreet'

'Yet, we were everywhere.'

"Are we the last ones

in the fray?"

"Are we the ones?"

"That I won't say!"

"I see you on the other side."

"I see you on the other side."

"It's only a feet away."

"Well I can see the end."

"Well I can see the end."

"Well I can see the end."

"Let's win the world!"

"Let's win the world!"

"Let's win the world!"

"Let's win the world!"

"Let's win the world!"

"French lyrics."

"Let's win the world!"

Are you free?

Not really.

Tell me.

- I was going through the list.

Both of you've rejected so many

cases, without voting.

Because they cannot

afford to pay us.

I understand.

But we also planned

to help weak and vulnerable women.

Right now,

we are just helping wealthy women.

We are making them more rich.

The case is always the same,

men will suffer.

Listen, we need to set

up our business first.

There are operating costs,

overheads

There's so much money that these

women are spending it on shopping.

What is the need?

Look, darling.

Oppressed women are like diamonds.

Forever!

We will get to them eventually.

But before that,

we need to increase the cash flow.

There is a team out there.

We need to keep them happy.

Money makes people happy.

Don't worry.

Everything will happen on time.

We promise.

Right?

Yes, it's a promise, b*tch.

Here, talk.

Hello?

Zubaida?

It's me.

Whatever had to happen has happened.

Come back home now.

Relationships aren't

broken so easily.

You didn't even bother to call.

You didn't call me either.

Sure, I'll come.

Mom.

She's calling me back home.

Come on, Big Mama!

You're always so grumpy.

Go carefully.

What do you mean?

Have you seen my biceps?

Come here.

Come here!

Why are you always this prickly?

Stop!

Okay.

Good.

I don't think Zubaida

should go home.

Same here.

How did they think of her now?

She's an adult.

We can't really stop her.

You go along.

I wonder if Munna has

gone even fatter!

I always wanted fat brothers.

But unfortunately,

ended up with skinny sisters.

But thankfully

Rizwana has put on some weight.

She's ballooned up!

I'll go with you.

I'll be back.

You won't go with me.

Why not?

I should meet them.

Shams, this is about me.

It is between me and my family.

If you come along,

things may get worse.

I'll make it worse?

I'll take you next time.

I promise.

Please.

You've become so dark roaming

around in the sun.

Mom. I've come for a day and you've

opened up a beauty parlour.

Let's go out.

- Let me do this.

I have missed you so much.

You know,

I was married when I was your age.

So?

- You'll never change.

What I'm trying to say

It might be important.

- No.

You'll spend time with family today,

and not answer calls.

Just get ready quietly.

Look.

Look at how pretty you look.

- You're overdoing it.

This is too much.

Enough. Let's go out.

Almost done.

'The number you've dialled

isn't answering.'

Do you know what is happening here?

You are weird!

I've no idea what is happening

in my house under my nose.

How will I know about

the neighbours?

I live on the top floor.

So people on this floor aren't

even my neighbours!

Or are they? Answer me!

They are not.

No right? So why should I

keep an eye on strangers?

Other women may, but at my age

on my way to the grave

I won't stick my leg in other

people's business!

I made a mistake. Forgive me!

'The number you've dialled isn't

answering. Please try later.'

'The number you have dialled"

I bet 200 rupees.

I'm sure this will fit her.

I bet 500, it will never fit her.

Fine, 500 it is then!

Mom,

you could've cleaned the drawer.

Where's my phone?

It must be around. Wear this.

What?

- This is my wedding dress.

Munna and I have a bet

to see if it fits you or not.

- Mom, I don't want to wear it.

It will not fit her, mom.

She has gained a lot of weight.

You bull!

Don't you feel ashamed to call

others fat? - Please!

Stop giving him pure butter.

He'll burst open with

all that eating!

Just go and wear it.

We shall see who is right then.

I will slap you!

- Go now. Come on.

He is right. Wear it.

Go!

Hello! All of you have to get here!

Some fatso has brought

a wedding procession!

We're coming.

Zubaida, answer my call!

And then they lived

happily ever after.

End of the story!

One more?

No. - Mom, why does daddy

sleep in the guest room?

Well, because he

Snores a lot.

But don't you miss his 'tuggles'?

Cuddles?

No, because I've you guys to cuddle.

Okay, enough of fun.

Time to go to bed. Okay?

Come one, you big one. Oh my god!

Somebody's so heavy!

Okay, kiddos.

Mummy might have to go now.

Saving the world again?

Sorry, love.

What happened?

Pick me up on the way, okay?

Now, tell me!

Oh my!

You look very pretty.

This is very tight, mom. I've to

take it off. I feel suffocated.

Come with me.

- What is it?

Please come, dear.

We don't mind.

We are very modern.

We are not that modern.

Fine,

not that modern, but we are open.

Boy and girl should meet and greet!

He has a superstar's body.

Mine is average.

I spend a lot of time at work

so,

I don't get time to go to the gym.

I must say

a paunch is an indicator of a happy,

satisfied man.

I have done things.

Things?

Dirty things

with him.

Oh, no problem!

I have also done things.

These days,

everyone does hanky panky.

Think of me as open-minded.

What happened, son?

She's a firecracker!

It's a 'yes' from me.

'Yes' from our side too.

- Yes.

Please start.

"Urdu chants."

Stay seated.

Or I will bury you alive.

"Urdu chants."

You are my father.

My father

I am from you.

I am yours.

My father.

Dear

- My father.

My father.

- Please maintain silence.

My father.

Sit quietly. Shut your mouth.

Stop this! Stop!

"Hey you!"

Act like a mother, you b*tch!

Will you marry her without

her consent?

I have seen your body.

I will never forgive you, Zubaida.

I won't forgive you either, mom!

- Come on.

Let's go!

Say, 'Go Zubaida.'

Go, Zubaida.

Let's move!

Go, Zubaida.

- Say it to Zubaida, not me!

Go, Zubaida.

Live your life.

- What?

Live your life!

- Let's go! Come on!

Run!

- Live your life.

Let's go!

Let's go!

- Zubaida!

Sit down!

Come on! Hurry!

"Run, run"

"I have come to you,

I like you, tell me what do I do?"

"I have come to you,

I like you, tell me what do I do?"

"I have taken the burden

on my heart."

"I have taken the burden

on my heart."

Let's go.

"Everyone is asleep"

You're up late.

How long will this go on for?

What?

This.

Sleeping in separate rooms,

staying out late?

I attend all your events.

We take decisions for

the kids together.

We live under the same roof.

I think, it's a lovely arrangement.

And what about us?

You and me?

I made a mistake.

- Mistakes!

Fine, mistakes.

But I don't want to lose us over it.

How far did you go with those girls?

- They were solo pictures.

I couldn't make out much.

- It was nothing

It was just harmless flirting.

Boredom. Nothing else.

And 2013

The harassment case?

Did you do anything without her

consent? - Don't be ridiculous.

Because I defended you.

Sara, what's wrong with you?

- And if you did

Your mind's gone wild!

I don't know what it is, maybe it's

the stress of your boutique.

Or you've realised that you don't

have time for your children.

Hey!

We need to communicate.

Dinner tomorrow? Okra?

Take your communication and shove

it where the sun don't shine.

It's not about my kids

or my boutique.

It's about your perpetual lust!

You can't keep it in your pants.

And no dinner at Okra is ever

going to fix that, sweetie.

We are eating, want some?

We think that our parents

will always support us

and protect us from everything.

But

Even our own blood turns poisonous.

It sure does.

Are you alright?

You can live with me and Batool

for as long as you like.

Thank you.

You and Sara will have to

fulfil your promise.

Cases that pay us are fine

but we will now also

take free cases.

We have to do this.

Shall we?

Good night, b*tches.

Jugnu, at least eat something.

Uh!

She must have plans of her own.

Right?

I told Dilbar to get lime!

I'm pouring more!

How much will you eat?

Here.

Have one bite at least.

Jeez, any vegetables?

What will vegetables do?

Meat makes you strong!

Give me the bigger piece.

Tasty!

Give me that.

Why don't you just dip?

Should I heat it for you?

Get lime.

I make it everyday.

Now we need the truck driver tea!

So many women all together.

Something was bound to happen.

Time-b*mb.

Tick. Tick. Tick.

"When you begin to perceive

your own as strangers"

"I started hiding from the

world."

"But I met you!"

"And, when you said everything

will be alright!"

"I mustered courage."

"I am not alone. Things

will become easy."

"My heart broke. Everything will

be alright."

"You said, everything

will be alright."

"I hope in my heart."

"Everything will settle down."

"Are you sure"

"That everything will be

alright!"
